Deep down spleen understands that a rising tide lifts all boats and he's probably well aware that every Atlanta neighborhood is seeing folks leave for the suburbs in higher numbers. The trick is that they all claim it's entirely COVID-related and refuse to entertain the idea that last Summer has been a major impact.

But, it's still a big prosperous city with people moving to it from other lefty-destroyed areas all the time. So it'll take a long while before some place like Atlanta has no growth. It should, however, show up in slowed growth (Atlanta was surging) and hyper growth in nice suburbs where COA expats are going.

It is funny watching leftists try and divert around this subject. I refuse to think they're all so stupid that they don't see this part of it, they just don't want to say it because it makes them uncomfortable and very much goes against their narrative.

I'd never make that argument. When $750k homes are getting multiple all cash offers and waiving inspections there are some weird things going on in the market that can't be explained away with just one contributing factor. Besides, I know Atlanta's market was insane before Covid. This same friend bought his current house in Va Highlands 5 years ago without even stepping foot in it. He had already been beaten out on a handful of houses.
